Hello Manuel,
>I used xmlwf and xmllint and both didnt eat this.
Anyway, Gtkdialog eats it. How can this work ?
Well, quoting the Gtkdialog docs:
"The dialog description language is a simple XML like language capable
to denote any complex dialog box containing widgets and boxes. "
Thanks for finding this out.
On their web page they introduce the first example
with the sentence.
The following shell script will load and execute a Glade XML file
So, I thought they really use XML files.
So it doesn't claim to be XML, but just XML-like. Probably read with a
simple ad-hoc parser (not an XML compliant one). The source tarball
contains files like "gtkdialog_lexer.c", "gtkdialog_parser.c", etc.
XML-like sounds nice, but it becomes useless when
I cannot parse it with a proper XML parser.
It is incomprehensible to me why someone should
define an XML-like format. Only Microsoft and IBM
can make money by adopting a standard in this way.
